AI Researcher - Prolific Researcher Reviews

I was weary at first, but they turned out to be legit. They need to work on their format. Completely overhaul it. Everything I experienced was thumbnail size, and the only other option is to Max Screen. The text is TEENY WEENIE! Even on 175% zoom, it doesn't make a difference 😶 Most of the time spent on the tasks is adjusting to see what the hell they need cuz everything is sooo miniature. It's just a lot of work, and the format doesn't flow. Some things are large but rarely. But I trust them now. They just need some polishing up. Very honest, and gives immediate feedback as well.

It suprised me at first and thought that it'd be hard or unfair, but this study turned out to be legit and fun with an auto-approval from the researcher.

The tasks are usually not particularly short, but the payment does not feel fair relative to the time required (underpaid), depending on the type of AI study. In most cases, the researcher submits the study immediately after completion. Although the study page warns that there may be NSFW videos or images, I did not find this to be the case. Instead, the content felt more like “Dreamcore” or “Weirdcore,” or subtly unsettling material, especially when required to repeatedly view and rate similar content for 15–25 minutes. It did not affect me personally, but others who may be sensitive to this should take it into consideration.

The pay per hour is rather low and the time allocated for the task requested is not enough to make a good job, but overall it was easy and they paid immediately. The time thing is a bit of a problem, though.

Took longer than stated and almost timed-out. Underpaying as well.

Decent study with a good pay

At first I didn't take this study because pay was too low. Then it popped back up and said it took about 9 minutes instead of the intended 16 minutes, paying $19.63 USD an hour, so I grabbed it. I did my best to complete the comparisions as it wanted me to, but this took me almost 30 minutes, and I got a warning that I needed to hurry up and finish to not get flagged as taking too long. I don't know how a person can give quality answers to 45 comparisons AND read the introduction/instructions in 9 or even 16 minutes. Instant approval.
